Simplicity

Fearsome Faces

Shock!  (I'm betting Zachary was telling tales about Kitty again)

And they both fall down laughing

Photography Assignment

The shots above have absolutely nothing to do with anything. That said, here's some commentary for the bottom shot:

When Zachary wants to play, he  flops the ground and starts rolling around while showing off his teeth.

As shown here.

Henry can't resist.

When Henry wants to play, he either grabs a toy and starts tossing it around (low probably of success) or grabs a part of Zachary and starts tugging on it (much greater probably of success).

I'd say that the difference is simply each dogs unique playing style, except that long before Henry's time, we had another Golden named Beau (the darker dog on my buddy icon - the lighter being a young Zachary).

And Beau's playing style was just like Zachary's. And Zachary (who was 4.5 years younger than Beau)  had a playing style just like Henry's (who is 2+ years younger than Zachary) is now.

Whew.

A whole lot of words to say the boys are just having fun.

The shots below are for...


Daily Dog Challenge "347. Simplicity"

Our Daily Challenge - Oct 12, 2012 - "Contre-Jour"

Was gone all day (during daylight hours) and so had to find an alternative form of backlighting.

This is two CFLs hiding behind one umbrella, with no flash or lights anywhere else.

And Zachary (top) and Henry (bottom).

Those who have a rough time telling the boys apart might be surprised just how different their profiles are.

The camera placement, lights, and umbrella are identical in the shots.

The veins in the umbrella show that the shots were cropped slightly differently, as the boys were posed in relatively, but not exactly, the same spot.
